I just moved to Visual Studio 2005. When I hit F5 to go into debug
mode for a project, the compiler builds every project in the solution,
including the MSI setup project. How can I turn this off? It's very
annoying. I just want to build my app and launch into debug mode. It
takes forever to wait for everything else to build as well.

Thanks!

Use the Configuration Properties dialog of the Solution Manager to tell the
compiler which projects to recompile.
